Rise to Fame
Joe Gorga has been part of the RHONJ cast since its third season aired in 2011, and the couple’s charmed life made everyone believe in fairytales. He was the man of the house, taking care of his family. He has provided them with an elaborate and lavish lifestyle and even made a huge mansion for his wife who filled it up with expensive furniture and her own closet with enviable collection of dresses and accessories.
Joe gained popularity as the man-candy of the show and he was the most handsome looking husband of the bunch.
Before the show launched, Joe was a real estate developer, who used to buy distressed properties, convert them into condos and apartments to sell them off for a nice profit.
Throughout the seasons of the RHONJ, the viewers have seen Joey support his wife in her various decisions, stand by her choices and even defend her from his own sister, Teresa Giudice.
He even agreed to build a new home for Melissa when the couple decided to move away from Teresa’s influence. The luxurious home that Joe built is reported to have a market value of 2.65 million dollars. He supported her decision to open her own clothing boutique titled Envy and helped her build and fit up the premises. Melissa owns this business along with partner, Jackie Beard Robinson, and the store is located at Montclair, New Jersey on 609 Bloomfield Avenue.
In the show, as well as in real life, Joe is a true-bred Italian male with looks and body to die for and a hot attitude to match.
Behind The Curtains
Joe comes from a family of Italian immigrants and his looks reflect his Mediterranean heritage. He is extremely loyal to his family and friends. He was especially distressed after the death of his mother early 2017. He takes care of his father and regularly visits him with his kids in tow.
He met Melissa in 2003 at a club but Melissa refused his advances saying he was short and not her type. But he proved to be the persistent sort winning his lady over and she moved in with him the same year.

The two got married in 2004. They have three children together, named Antonia, Joey and Gino.

His sister, Teresa Guidice, and husband, Joey, were accused of several counts of bank, mail, wire, and bankruptcy fraud to which they have pleaded guilty in 2014. The couple was sentenced to incarceration, Teresa a total of 15 months and Joey for 41 months. Teresa served 11 months in prison between January 5, 2015 and December 23, 2015.
Joe has had his share of legal troubles. The couple is said to be in a debt of over 1.5 million dollars and are tied up in litigation over several legal battles. He has had to endure over 26 lawsuits since 2002. He has often been accused of being petty and an opportunist by his opponents.
Joe and Melissa are said to be going through a rough patch in their marriage as she has become busy with her store and is not being able to devote much time to her family as she used to. Joe is said to be very upset at the turn of events and has been heard to complain a lot.
